RED RIDING HOOD
Release: Mar 11 - Review: 10 Jan 12
Lycan-nope.
...Fear has been leached in favor of the love triangle between three teens. One look at the director of this piece and it all makes sense: Catherine Hardwicke, TWILIGHT. All the better to Chick-Flick you, my dear.

WALL STREET: MONEY NEVER SLEEPS
Release: Sep 10 - Review: 27 Dec 11
Freakonomics and Con-sumerism.
Oliver Stone's sequel to that pimping film is just as confusing and hedonistic, with its insider knowledge and corporate thuggery, but set very much in the present of the 2008 economic meltdown.

BAD TEACHER
Release: Jun 11 - Review: 12 Dec 11
BAD TEACHER not good.
It's commendable that Cameron Diaz would go to such great lengths to portray someone so despicable and "ugly," but BAD TEACHER doesn't do her any justice, being even more despicable and ugly.

TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON
Release: Jun 11 - Review: 11 Dec 11
Big things breaking bigger things.
I'm sure the budget of TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON could wipe out Liberia's deficit, so why can't they afford passable look-alikes for Kennedy and Obama?
